stewie 3,387 Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 you can try the old wives tales above or you can google "ecoplug' and try that the company i worked for in sweden knew the guy who devolped it and ive seen it works!! its basically plugs you drill into the base and then they breakdown and the chemical kills the whole root system......brilliant stuff!!!! failing that use a pole to dig it out.......not a metal one mind a human one that will do it for £20...... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
